How have you used Bitcoin Lightning ⚡️ lately?
(I’ve used it in Cairo, Kigali, Maasai Mara, and Mt Kilimanjaro to buy eSIM cell data with Bitcoin)
Share!


From seed to plant 🌱 to berry to bean 🫘 to roast to grind to brew to cup ☕️ at a coffee farm on Mt Kilimanjaro in Tanzania today

Mark Zuckerberg says Meta is spending hundreds of billions of dollars to build massive GPU compute clusters.
Zuck: "Just one of these [clusters] covers a significant part of the footprint of Manhattan.”
And people say Bitcoin mining is going to destroy the environment 🤣🤣🤣


“I should have just SHUT UP and bought bitcoin”
Why do people watch this guy?
When you 2x your money in stocks, most sell, take the cash, search for new asset to 2x again
Most will then lose it; trading = gambling
With bitcoin, when you 2x your ₿ stacks value, the prevailing consensus is to do nothing
Because hodling = winning
GET IN THE HODL HOUSE


The S&P 500 is down 85% in 5 years against ₿itcoin
SP500 Price ➗ Bitcoin Price 🟰 ratio
Do the math yourself.
These are facts.
And they are undisputed.


IS BITCOIN SUSTAINABLE?
Enough of the FUD; what are the FACTS
Bitcoin energy consumption rose 17% to 138 TWh annually, while hardware efficiency improved by 24% year-on-year, reaching 28.2 J/TH by June 2024. As global hashrate and energy usage has increased 📈over the years, miner efficiency and renewable energy source usage have both increased as well 👌
52.4% of energy usage is sustainable (42.6% renewables (hydro 🌊, solar ☀️, wind 💨 , geothermal 🌋), 9.8% nuclear ⚛️), up from 37.6% in 2022. Natural gas (38.2%) overtook coal (8.9%) as the largest single source. Oil and fossil fuel use is none to negligible.
86.9% of decommissioned ASIC hardware is resold, repurposed, or recycled 🔄
Trends indicate that mining companies are exploring HPC/AI 🤖, flared gas 🔥, waste-heat recovery 🔂, and demand-side response for new revenue and efficiency. (Click “Ask Grok” if you’re curious what some of these are 👆)
Greenhouse gas emissions due to bitcoin have been reduced to 39.8 MtCO₂e in 2024 (which is 0.08% of global total GHG emissions), down from 69.6 MtCO₂e in prior estimates. Nearly cut in 1/2, so far.
So what do you think? 💭
• Is the Bitcoin mining industry “a great evil”?
• Is it acting in good faith and actively seeking sustainability?
Share your thoughts please 🙏🏼💬👇
